Infrared and Terahertz Spectroscopy in Exotic Electronic Materials

by Dr Stefano Lupi

Europe/Zurich
Description
Relevant low-energy phenomena in condensed matter physics are related to a complex interaction among Charge, Spin, and Lattice degrees of freedom. In this talk I will present examples of exotic low-energy electrodynamics in Strongly-Correlated Materials, Superconductors and Topological Insulators that have been investigated through infrared and terahertz frequency-resolved spectroscopy with conventional and synchrotron based sources. Moreover, I will discuss some possible time-resolved experiments on the same systems which could be performed by an intense terahertz and infrared sub-ps source. Contact Christoph Hauri, 4197
